Subcellular location [CC]Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18093978, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23514740}. Cytoplasm, cell cortex {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18093978}. Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18093978}. Lipid droplet {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P70196}. Note=Found in the nuclei of some aggressive B-cell lymphoma cell lines as well as in the nuclei of both resting and activated T- and B-lymphocytes. Found in punctate nuclear body protein complexes. Ubiquitination may occur in the cytoplasm and sumoylation in the nucleus. RSAD2/viperin recruits it to the lipid droplet (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
